As it was so noisy last night I thought I'd chance my luck and try to get a lightning image as the storms raged over head. I was rewarded with this shot from the spare bedroom window, just before 2.00 am this morning. Tired now!
Lightning breaks in every direction near the Ground between Mt Somerville and Mt Tomewin. View over the New South Wales border from the Queensland Gold Coast hinterland.

My first ever successful capture of lightning.
So many times in the past when there has been a thunderstorm its been tipping down with rain and no flashes directly in front of the window.
An unbelievable lightning storm last night passed us by to the North. This is an 8-second exposure. To watch it in real time was just amazing. Constant flickering with bolts coming out of the clouds with a speed that seemed like a time-lapse.
Here is the video I took with my phone.
One of the first (and best) lightning photos I've ever taken. Recently had to edit it black and white for a customer. I love the drama the black and white edit gives it. The lights in the left lower corner are the cattle sale barn at the north end of our town. While I didn't get the lights of the whole town, I think this proves just how small we really are.

When taking SloMo video at 240 fps (14,400 frame per minute), it is easy for one to overlook a quick lightning discharge. This is an example of one that almost was missed.

I love the song "Lampo" by Gianmaria Testa but Lampo means lightning and I don't have any photos of it. But the other day I found this lightning road and hope it fits to the song. Here is a bit in Italian and a bit in English via translation software.
"però la vita é subito
tu mi dici così
si ma la vita é subito
il tempo, soltanto il tempo
di una fotografia
il lampo che abbaglia negli occhi
e non ci vedi più "
"However, life is just this moment
so you say to me
but it is just here and now-
time, only time;
a photo
the lightning flash that dazzles the eyes
and we do not see "
Listen to the song please.
This is a stack of 16 individual frames taken from the central Texas area within 5 minutes of each other, during the evening of May 16, 2025. The storm was moving from West to East. Highly electrified storms moved through the area, and I wanted to show the amount of lightning these storms produced.

Lucky to be at the right place at the right time and with the right hunch. Always wanted to do something like this!
I stepped out my back door to take some photos of lightning. This picture doesn't have a lightning bolt but I'm pretty sure I got a Perseid meteor. It's the only star with a tail.
Between 8:47PM to 9:51PM, a predicted thunderstorm (forecasted 6 hours in advance) moved into Cheyenne from the south with a continuous display of lightning. While I only received 0.11 inch of rain, areas in northern Colorado received between 1 and 2 inches.
Initially, there was lots of cloud to ground lightning (CG) as twilight faded. Then the lightning dominated with strobe-like in cloud discharges.
This image captured a nice series of bright CG bolts over the city of Cheyenne. Using a Fujifilm X-T5, 16-55mm f/2.8 lens, I was able to zoom in on the action over the Cheyenne Ridge (bordering between Colorado and Wyoming) about 15 miles away.

Oh, lightning! What a Nature’s high voltage spectacle!
The past few days, weather conditions were particularly ripe for thunderstorms and I decided to make my first attempt at lightning photography. Moreover, to see storms makes me feel good. I love to hear the thunder, watch the lightning; and, when it starts to rain, I listen to my playlist for stormy days.
Note: I should buy a camera rain cover, instead of using a plastic bag.
